Geo z. Rowell & Co. have issued
a select catalogue of newspsp ers
which they recommend to adver-
Users as the best medium through
which the public can be reached
They have picked out the very
cream Of the advertising mediums
in each State. In Nevada they
have selected but FIVE newspape
which they recommend 10 adver
tisers, and the MORNING APPEAL
heads the list The other papers
are the Enterprise, Chronicle, Sen
tinel and Gazette.
In the preface to the little vol
une this solid chunk Of wisdom oc-
ours:
We advise our advertising pat
rons that 1t will be well 10 coatine
their advertisements to selections
from this catalogue, unless they
have conclnsire reasons for wishing

A gain it remarks:
10 small towns Of less than s.
800 inhabitants one good, well es-
tabli~hed paper will reach all that
the advertiser cares to reach. and
advertising In any other paper Is
superhuous and money throaca

1t also says:
1T has been our aim to name the

THE w.ATER QUESTION.
a state o1 Affairs which the
Legislature Refused TO REM


Legislature Refuse TO REM
edy.
The State of Nevada is just nov
without any settled, well define,
water law. An irrigation bill wa
before the Legislature last session
but il was voted down 10 the in
terests of some of the big waite
sharks of the State. The Supreme
| Court have rendered several de-
ci>ions on the subject but In sncf
manner that few people today
know how the question stands, but
here is what a writer in the Silver
State has to say:
EDITOR SILVER STATE:-T have
but small interest in the water oil
the Humboldt River. but what |
have | desire to preserve. / have
been using small quantity of
water continuously since 1869. For
the last two years the water has
been taken out above me and on up
to Beowawe, as to materially lessen
the flow, aud make my supply very
scarce The ranchers about Beo-
wave are Low taking out immense
quantities of water which never re-
turns to the river and they are pre-
pairing to take out what is left and
claim that they have right to take
all they can use. [ have the best
legal advice In Lander and Eureka
counties To the effect that the APP
proprlafors abuve can acquire such
an adverse right as t. take and hold
ali the water, If the lower appropri-
ators lay idlv by aud see these ad-
verse rights acquired. as they are
now going. Some of these ranch
erS above are men of immense for
tunes, aud think they can swallow
up the litile fishes in any legal con
test, AID have not only become i'm
pudent IN their use of water. but
very impudent when spoken to
about it. If the ianchers below
will unite, there cannot be much
d ,fficulty ia maintaining their
rights. | am willing To stand in
with nv propol tiou Of all expenses
in defending the property rights Of
all along the river in Lander and
Hum holdt counties. bv proper legal
proceedings, or bv going up and
taking ont he dams and filliae up
the bitches Of those above. who
have no respect for the rights Of
OTHERS. The longer the necessary
proceedings are DELAYED the harder
it will be t. di,lodee them.

Tho Only Hnverly Coming.

A rare treat is promised those who visit
tho Opera House next Tuesday evening,
when Haverly's famous mastodon min
atrels make their, appearance. Judging
from newspaper criticisms and reports in
genera, they will eclipse anything recently
seen in minstrelsy. All the cities In which
this organization has appeared since its
return from England. are enthusiastic in
their praise Of this company, and judging
from the list OF people they will come up
to, and even excel, all expectations. Spe-
cial care has been taken by Mr.. Haverly
in arranging the programme, to depart as
much as possible from the monotonous
rut into which minstrelsy seems to have
fallen. New1ess and novelty haye been
his motto in organizing his company.
